Obama rightfully stopped the refugee programs back in 2011, but the media has been quiet on this.
The reason for their deafening silence today is that Obama did back then what Trump is proposing today.
As The Federalist noted:
Although the Obama administration currently refuses to temporarily pause its Syrian refugee resettlement program in the United States, the State Department in 2011 stopped processing Iraq refugee requests for six months after the Federal Bureau of Investigation uncovered evidence that several dozen terrorists from Iraq had infiltrated the United States via the refugee program.
